ORDER

1. ' MUHAMMAD HALEEM, ACTG. C. J.-In this petition the dispute relates to the recovery of dower debt about which it was alleged that it was paid through a bank on 15th of February, 1975, at Lahore. The trial Court held that the bank transaction was fake as she was not the recipient of the amount withdrawn from the bank.

2. ' On appeal the Additional District Judge, Rawalpindi, affirmed this finding upon an appraisal of evidence on record. Feeling aggrieved, the petitioner challenged this finding in the Lahore High Court through a constitution petition, but did not succeed as the High Court did not interfere with the concurrent finding of fact. The learned counsel for the petitioner was not able to seriously dispute the correctness of this finding. Accordingly, we see no justification to interfere with the order of the High Court, which is unexceptionable.

3. ' The petition is, accordingly, dismissed.
